Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

With an iPad, I will have access to a wide range of professional development tools and resources that will support my continued growth as an educator. I will use it to take notes during training sessions, access educational podcasts, attend virtual workshops, and stay organized with planning and instructional materials. The iPad will allow me to easily integrate new strategies into my daily teaching by streamlining lesson planning, classroom management, and communication with families and colleagues. As I grow professionally, my students will directly benefit from more engaging, tech-integrated lessons, timely feedback, and a well-organized, supportive classroom environment tailored to their needs.
